Common Sense of a Duke’s Daughter

Conspiracy

(TL: Prince Kaadir and his grandfather talking….)

“… Oh well, now to rejoice… The war seems to have begun…”

“Oh, Twil’s country started their attack at the last moment, I thought that it’d immediately start when they reach the border, but it seems we had to wait…”

My grandfather exhales while giving me a gentle look.

“The Twil’s country is a persistent enemy for them, they had it very hard after the previous defeat but because they want to obtain a great richness they continue trying to invade, while every time they fail, it’d be more abundant the accumulation of war expenses and the increment of poverty of their country. There seems to be some kind of big power in their kingdom that gives priority to invade other territories even at the cost of theirs dying. Because, the more defeats they accumulate, the weaker they are and the more exposed to other countries attack, at the end if they don’t win this time they most likely will be attacked and lose all. That’s also why I think both aims have the same meaning, there is no difference in sacrificing now or later, if they don’t invade them they can’t continue with the accumulated debts and if they lose in this war they’ll be destroyed. “

“Ha ha … It is totally reasonable to say that they don’t have any option other than starting a war.”

“Well, for us, it is important that they start already, only if they move we can finish them and reap after both countries are weakened, your father will obtain information about their strategy and numbers within a couple of days, so be sure to work with your diligent older brother on the preparations… ‘

“When I think about the obstacles and pain they brought to this country and its people, then I’m glad that a harmful threat will soon disappear, I will be refreshed. And the great richness we can reap from those two is … magnificent…”

“But Kaadir, don’t forget to plan everything beforehand… don’t leave anything at random.. If Tasmania’s kingdom works as we expect, they won’t be able to imagine the scene they are going to face on the front line at all.. hahaha…”

“Everyone will go this time. The bait is the Duke of Almeria… It has been rumored to have the biggest riches of all the kingdom for quite a while… Father has posted a huge amount of money for those who make fall the Duke of Almeria. He’s always looking for new territories to conquer and the imported goods from the Duke of Almeria are his greatest favorite “

“Surely so.”

“And we know all the information about the Duke of Almeria … Our best interest is to seek rich land.”

“… Who could have caused that information to be circulated between the people?”

To that white question, I laugh silently.

Originally I was convinced that it was grandfather who did that, and… my grandfather smiled again in answer.

“Certainly, once that rich land falls to our hands, perhaps you may be given the right to overseer it…”

“Well, I’m not interested in those lands but the throne, but that’s fine, it’s a great opportunity for me, as long as I conquer what he wants, father will have more trust on me and it’ll be easier to remove him and take the throne”

“… Prince Kaadir, please be careful, we have confirmed that the guarding corps of that place are not weak, and they have eyes and ears hidden in the royal palace, are they not too much for us to take on? “

“It is a wonderful thing if they are strong, it’ll make things more interesting, but grandfather has confirmed that they are at their weakest point now as the powerful people has all left for the war, he can’t be mistaken.”

At those words, the girl smiled softly.

“As a descendant of father, our older brother is a brute who only knows how to follow his path. Father has designed him as the crown prince and his solely successor, but… He’s a fateful general who flaunts of his martial arts and uses his lineage to oppress and control the upper part of the country, full of greed, vanity and stupidity. It is reasonable for smoke to rise from every corner of our country if he oppresses our people as he does. Our country will never be able to smile like the past glorious Twil and Tasmeria kingdoms if we don’t remove them. “

The Kingdom of Acacia boasts to be a vast country with many resources on its natural abundant ad rich land.

Unlike the Kingdom of Tasmeria, it has a political regime in which the royal family rules directly over all instead of having each lord governing its territory.

In other words, the royalty power here is by far stronger compared to that in the kingdom of Tasmeria.

Although the benefits for the country are immeasurable if it has a wise leader, it becomes disastrous when the crown embraces greed and selfishness.

“Well, my father used to be a thoughtful considerate king who cared for the people. If you look at the past measures that remain in the records, you can see how he cared and every decision was with our people on mind, but recently the heavy pressure of the nobility crushed his senses… He now only accepts the good words even if those are lies, and closes his eyes to the signs of smoke rising from every corner of this country “

“Every country is the same, as fruits become too big it starts to rot off from the inside”

“Hmm…”

“That’s why, we’re with you Kaadir, hoping for a better future for this country, please take care of yourself on this expedition.”

“Will the story go back to our glorious times if we win?”

“Yes, because the most annoying thing is to break down from something you considered worthless and didn’t cherish”

“…It’s not the time to take the throne yet grandfather”

“Well…”

Grandfather lowered his head pensive at my words.
